While a panel of psychiatrists said this week that Bruce Ivins, the Maryland scientist believed by authorities to be behind several anthrax-laden letters in 2001, was “psychologically disposed to undertake the mailings,” U.S. Rep. Rush Holt, D-Hopewell, maintains that the FBI has not proved its case.

The anthrax attacks, which came in the weeks following 9/11, killed five people and infected 22 others. The letters were mailed from a box on Nassau Street in Princeton Borough. The Postal Service’s center on Route 130 in Hamilton was closed for four years for a fumigation after anthrax-laced letters were routed through its machinery in 2001.

“I think this just adds a little more circumstantial evidence that Ivins was the culprit,” Holt said in a telephone interview yesterday. “I don’t think it cinches the case.”

Holt added that, after rushing to conclusions in naming Dr. Steven Hatfill a “person of interest” in the case in 2002, there was little reason to believe the veracity of the FBI’s investigation into Ivins’ role in the attacks.

I forget, Mr. President. We are able to drop bombs on whoever, demolish the rights of all American workers, and promote the nuclear energy inspite of its EPIC FAIL because we don't look back anymore, right O? Rep. Holt has a bill in Congress to create a commission to look at the Anthrax attacks. That wasn't part of the deal, either, was it O? After all, it was just postal workers and hospital workers and 90 year old ladies and somebody who published an unflattering photo of Jenna Bush who died. Who cares, right O?

/sarcasm off. I still care, O.

1. Hatfill saved his life by making it a public case.

They couldn't suicide him because he made sure the media told his story.

Ivins didn't have that luxury.

Weapons grade Anthrax.

Don't forget about the National Enquirer reporter that exposed the Bush twins falling on the floor drunk, was the first casualty of the anthrax attacks.

And don't forget that Dan Rather also received a dose as well.

IMO, the anthrax attacks were an inside job.
